13 years ago Kwame Alexander started writing a book at a coffee shop in Herndon Virginia. Now "The Crossover" is being turned into a television series for Disney+ and LeBron James is on board as EP. The Newberry Medal winner sits down with Angie to talk about his writing journey, new TV show, new trilogy coming out this Fall and the state of literacy and reading in this digital age when it comes to kids. It's an inspiring story that shows big dreams, hard work and patience really does pay off.
